Had to do that sorry,no problems with bidders or anything like that.
Beth and I packed over 40 items to ship yesterday.Well we went to the PO today to pickup the mail and what came in with Paypal
and Billpoint and I have another 20 items to ship.
It seems payments are breeding like rabbits things we like very much.But the look I get of late when I come back from the PO with more payments.Makes me think I better look for an new home hahahahaha.
Do you ever feel like that at times,its not a complaint but sometimes you feel like can we get a break for more than a few days without having to worry about shipping.

Hi Adrian - good to read about your little problem! I had a busy day here, too. I hoped the kids would maybe entertain themselves a bit while I got a grip, but they had other ideas like killing each other.

Yes the last week has been much better for me also.
Sell any swimming pools yet?
Our pool is under a tarp with four foot of dirty snow on top of it. I don't think we will even see it again until April.

I was looking over my sales over last year.I sold about 75,000 less than the previous year however we made more money total on the lesser amount about a 20% increase.
I thought last year was bad too,maybe I better re-think doing this part time and stick at it full time.
Nope time for a change and do something else while building up inventory.
I have a plan to get at least 100 items that I can continually list each week,that sell everytime I list them.
I am about half way there and if I use the money to re-invest in the business rather than to live on I think I can do that within another 12 months.
Then I can just do it full time again.As I can list the other 50 items and all different in about 3 hours as I use the same template for each.
Hope this year is good will see.
Later Adrian
As to the vrane site I found I ran 4115 successfull auctions.Ebay fees where 18563.45
about 11% of sales.I think I can get that below 9% this year.Average sale for the year
36.62.
